Artur Kimovich Kitayev (Russian: Артур Кимович Китаев; 1962 – 29 September 2019) was a Soviet–Russian serial killer who killed six women and girls in Smolensk Oblast between 1990 and July 1992. Dubbed the "last sex maniac of the USSR", he was sentenced to death on 24 February 1994, but his sentence would later be commuted to life imprisonment following the moratorium introduced in the country. In 2019, Kitayev was murdered by his prison cellmate, Dustmurod Ilyosov.
